When the LORD brought back the captives to Zion, we were like men who dreamed.
Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, "The LORD has done great things for them."
The LORD has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy.
Restore our fortunes, O LORD, like streams in the Negev.
Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy.
He who goes out weeping, carrying seed to sow, will return with songs of joy, carrying sheaves with him.
Psalm 126:1-6
Tom Wright comments: "Restoration. Forgiveness. New starts. These are the greatest moments in the world, even if you have to wait a lifetime for them to come."
Sunday, April 6, 2014 is a perfect time to make a new start.
